W a n treadle 14, the cross-head 5 may he lowered, thereby compressing the springs 10 and thatv upon releasing the treadle, the cross-head will he slid upwardly upon the uprights i bythe said springs. Should it be desired to reciprocate the cross-head hy hand, the pulleys 1'? may he disconnected therefrom and the arms l2 may he disconnected from the hase l, in the manner heretofore described.

is before stated, the. invention conteniplates the provision, in connection with the dasher rod, of novel fan' attachments and each ci these attachments is formed 'from a single length of resilientI wire indicated hy the ninneral 2l and coiled at one end as at 22 to forni a sleeve adapted to be frictional'ly fitte upon the dasher rod 3 near its upper end. The other end of the wire is bent as at 23 to forni a sleeve designedto receive, rictionally, the handle of a fan indicated. by the numeral 24. lt is preferable ,that two of these attachments he provided upon the dasher rodj one ceingo the forni illustrated at the top of Fig. l of the drawing and havingits portion `between its ends vextending forwardly at rightangles fro-ni the said dasher rod and supporting the Jfan 24 in horizontal position or at' en angle of inclination to the right or to the left. The vother attachment preferably has its sleeve 23 cent to extend downwardly at right angles from its intermediate portion so that the fan 24: supported thereby will be in su stantially a vertical plane. Ars stated, the

wire from which these attachments are formed, is resilient and when the flasher is reciprocated verticallya the intermediate portions of the wires will to resistance oli'eied by the passage of the fan through the air and a gentle draft will. he created. The upper one ci' le 'fans in Fig. l is designed to 'ii r corni of 'the nico is designed to inserer/e Cei-ving and from the vicinity or the mouth ci? the churn hody.

Having thus described the invention what l. ln churn operating mechanism, a hase, spaced socket ineinhers seoy ed upon one side of the hase, a treadle spaced arms hinged to the treadle7 laterali; proiecting pins at the ends of the arms, the pins projccting from corresponding sides of the said arms and 4being fitted removably and pivot ally in the socket membersj a head mounted for vertical reciprocatory increment upon the hase, and operative connection hetwee i the treadle and said head.

Q. ln churn operating niechanisl a re- 5o ciprocatory head for the connection of the dashe'r-rod oita" churn, the said head "beingl formed with a notch extending inwardly and thence laterally' from one edge thereof and arranged to receive the said rod, and a setscrew threaded through the forward wali of the notch and adapted to hear the said rod and hoiding the saine fixed for re eiprocatory increment with theV head.

in' churn operating mechanism, e reciprocatory head arranged the attachnient of the flasher-rod of a churn7 the head being formed: with a dasher-rod-re notch extending inwardly" thence laterally from one side thereof, the said notch ceing formed` at its inner end partly embrace the rod, and a set-screw threaded through the wall of the notch end to hear against that portion ot t. rod not embraced hy the w'fll of the no`L holding' saine for reciprocatcizy movement with the need.

testimony whereof, ny signature pres .ce ci two Witnesses.
